among prople mtereslcd con- servation and we've been flooded with calls. We have more projects than we can handle at the prl'sent." 'vii chael R. Adkins, pr.P.si- dent of t~e nonprofit organi- zation, said the non-attorney members are involved in in- vestigating projects and re- porting their findings. Wilson said much of the in- vestigation involves search- ing through public documents to ~ake sure projects being considered will not sig- nificantty damage the envi- ronment of the county. The group currently is working out of an office lo- cated at the USD School of Law. . "Our overhead is prac- tically nothing," Wilson said. "We have no paid staff as ~uch. We have an executive director, John Thelan, who is supposed to he paid but we haven't paid him yet." "The board members arc not paid becau~e it is against the law for such board mem- bers or a nonprofit organiza- tion lo be paid," Wil )n said. "Any !und we col, ct goes in environment and

into investigation and litiga- tion." · He said attorneys are hired to litigate the court actions on an ad hoc basis. The:! membership consists of law students who are medical doctors, engineers, sociolo- gists, chemists and other pro- fessions, Wilson said. He said they have to date been working on the Coro- nado Shores high nse case studying the pending set- tlement that is be111g consid- ered. PROPOSED AQUEDUCT "Our task in this is lo study the settlement to see if it is in lh~ public interest," Wilson said. "ll involves all or the people of California who use the Coronado beach. "We also are taking a close look at the proposed aqueduct that will deliver waler from the Olay He:;ervoir to the city of Tijuana. "The problem there is th.it Tijuana dumps 1\s raw sew- age six miles below the bor- der and if this waler 1s deliv- r1wl to them without. some study, it could increase tJie

amount of sewage there tre- mendously. "There is a sewage. treat- ment plant at Rosan to l3each but they have never financed a delivery system from Ti- juana to lhe facility. What we want them to do before the water is delivered is to see that lhe delivery system is fi- nanced at the same time they finance the aqueduct. "We can't . really do much on the Tijuana side but we can bring the problem to the attention of five or six agencies on this side of the border. "If nothing is done, we can bring suit against the Ameri- can agencies under the Na- tional Environmenlal Policy Act or the California Environ- mental Policy Act." Wilson said his group has many other projects under consideration at the present time. "One," he ~aid. "is to pro- tect a canyon of( of Balboa Park where a sewer line is being installed. Our concern there is to see that the con- struction firm restores the c~nyon to 11s natural slate af- ter the system JS installed. "

A -group of

San is look_ing hi h ancl low for po- lenllal court actions in the name of ecology. Their search has taken them from the depths of county sewer system to the heights of the Coronado hares high rise project since they incorporated last Au- gust. The nonprofit group is called the Environmental Law Society of San Diego Inc. and presently consists of 35 members, including 12 altor- nevs. Kent C. Wilson, former ex- ecutive director and now a lnember of the nine-man lmard of directors.' was one of the originators of the group. TO AID GROUPS "The rearon we formed is !hat we wanted to have a le- gal group to handle litigation for community groups like the Citizens Coordinate Sierra Club, Clean Air Coun'. cil and hPr groups interest- ~o y."
